While You Were Sleeping

This is the first book I wrote as well as illustrated. A night-time journey is taken around the world to see animals while we are safely tucked up in bed. It is also a counting book. In the UK it is a schools’ level one Sats book.

Nursery World magazine (UK) listed it as a “must-have counting book”.

What others have said about the book:
‘…luxuriantly illustrated… Butler’s soothing, restrained text reads like a lullaby, but his full bleed, double-spread animals are the stuff of wide-eyed wonder, especially when he renders his subjects in close-up.’Publishers Weekly (US)
